00:00Meanwhile, to get the attention of the former Bantarlac company, Mayor Alice Goh, we will talk to Atty. Stephen David, Alice Goh's lawyer.
00:09Atty. David, good morning.
00:11Good morning Ivan.
00:14Atty. David, why didn't Alice Goh come earlier? Did you talk to her or did you meet her?
00:23We haven't talked yet. But my lawyer is there, my law partner. I was very tired yesterday because I had a lot of work.
00:33Okay. So this afternoon, what is your plan? Are you going to talk to Alice Goh?
00:42Yes, later. I will just get ready. I will be there in two hours.
00:48I mentioned to Goh that he has been receiving death threats since he was arrested in Indonesia.
00:55What is your information on who is behind these death threats?
00:59Actually, I can't really reject that because we have a lawyer-client privilege.
01:05But since he said that, I have no problem. Actually, he is not sold out on his surrender.
01:15As I said, we always talk about his surrender.
01:18But the 50-50 hindrance, the death threats are scary to him.
01:28That's why he can't surrender. That's the reason.
01:32But as I said, he will surrender. That's why I have no problem with the death threats.
01:38So prior to this revelation yesterday and before his arrest, when you last talked to him, did he mention that he has death threats?
01:48We always talk about him. That's why if you will notice, in my interviews, I said that he will surrender.
01:55The only problem is that it's a matter of time. That's the first thing. It's scary.
02:00The arrest warrant of RTC 109 of Tarlac was issued because of the Graft case.
02:07Will this become a hackbang?
02:09Usually, bail should be posted because it's available.
02:16The problem is that there's no urgency to post a bail because he still has an arrest warrant in the Senate.
02:25Whether he will post a bail in Tarlac or not, he will still be jailed because he has a Senate warrant.
02:32For me, so that he won't be tired because he only served two days, I will let him stay in the PNP.
02:45I will file a motion in the RTC of Tarlac to maintain his status.
02:52If he will be delivered in the RTC, he will also be jailed if he won't surrender.
02:59He's already detained. I will manifest to the court that he's already here in his facility so he can rest.
03:07Atty., you have no opposition to him wearing a T-shirt that says CIDG detainee.
03:17What?
03:18You have no opposition to him wearing a T-shirt that says CIDG detainee.
03:24Well, that's standard protocol. He's already detained in the CIDG.
03:29He has a warrant of arrest coming from the court. That's the reason why he's already detained.
03:39Between the arrest warrant of the RTC of Tarlac and the Senate, what is more important?
03:46Is there a priority for those two?
03:50If the Senate will lift his warrant, he will be released and he will file a bill in the RTC.
04:02If the Senate won't lift his warrant, he won't file a bill. He's already in jail.
04:15Right. Atty. David, we will continue to hear updates from you this afternoon. Thank you very much for your time this morning.
04:24Thank you Stephen. Thank you.
04:26We talked to Atty. Stephen David, lawyer of Alice Go.
